This collection consists of four boxes containing published reproductions from the Earl C. Adams Collection and a postcard album, all devoted to documentation of the art and life of Charles M. Russell, one of the best known Western artists. Also found in the collection are two scrapbooks containing clippings and other ephemeral items concerning Russell and his works, and several photographs that include snapshots of Russell's funeral procession.

Two leather bound scrapbooks containing C.M. Russell painting images, with hand-written interpretation by the donor's great uncle, John Locke Richey, Montana homesteader and Russell contemporary.
